With everything........if you plan to break rules better not tell everyone on a worldwide chat - there is always a nark somewhere and Ive heard of many FF accounts being audited and suspended for fraud.</font>
Yes, its amazing that anyone could actually want the kind of "satisfaction" (personally, yuck) that being a narc may give them (again, yuck), but its true.
Certain FTers have come right out and stated that they would go out of their way to narc out anyone they found breaking airline rules. See this thread:

Along with this, if one goes over to moremiles.org, an FT knockoff that was seemingly started by certain FTers who found the "rules" on FT not being enforced well enough for their taste, you will note that "their" rules state:
(http://www.moremiles.org/tos.html)
"WE MAY TAKE ACTION IF YOU ACT UNLAWFULLY:
13. MOREMILES reserves the right to investigate complaints or reported violations of our Statement of Use and to take any action we determine is appropriate including but not limited to reporting any suspected unlawful activity to law enforcement officials, regulators, or other third parties and disclosing any information necessary or appropriate to such persons or entities relating to your profiles, e-mail addresses, usage history, posted materials, IP addresses and traffic information."
Being that almost all of those who are registered and subscribe to these rules over at moremiles are FTers, and you may see them on these FT boards currently, this is just another reason to watch out when posting.
